Abstract

The program PECET (Boundary Element Program in Three-Dimensional Elasticity) is presented in this paper.

This program, written in FORTRAN V and implemen ted on a UNIVAC 1100,has more than 10,000 sentences and 96 routines and has a lot of capabilities which will be explained in more detail.

The object of the program is the analysis of 3-D piecewise heterogeneous elastic domains, using a subregionalization process and 3-D parabolic isopara, metric boundary elements.

The program uses special data base management which will be described below, and the modularity followed to write it gives a great flexibility to the package.

The Method of Analysis includes an adaptive integration process, an original treatment of boundary conditions, a complete treatment of body forces, the utilization of a Modified Conjugate Gradient Method of solution and an original process of storage which makes it possible to save a lot of memory.
